New
Jersey is one of the most populated states in the United States of America. And
as it happens, it also has great variety of cultures living together. Several
aspects of each culture can be seen in day-to-day settings, but best witnessed
during special occasions like weddings. Even more so when a wedding is taking
place between two people belonging to different cultural backgrounds! Luckily
for me, I get invited to several weddings every month since I am a professional
wedding photographer and videographer.
While
photography became a hobby early on, after my aunt gifted me my first camera
when I was twelve, it became a profession only much later. After training with
some well-known names in the business in New Jersey and New York, I had to
decide what I wanted to really do with my skills. Since I am, by nature a
people’s person, I figured it’d be best to set up shop covering joyful events:
weddings! And I must say I’m never disappointed. As a wedding photographer, I
get to be part of every single aspect of the several parts of a wedding, and I
get to capture all the drama and joy of the occasion.
A
wedding photographer and videographer must have more than just skill in
wielding the camera or camcorder. The photographs must be clear and well
captured, because wedding albums are thumbed through more number of times than
any other photo album. But as a wedding photographer, one also needs an eye for
detail, an appreciation of beauty, and a sense of discreetness. No wedding
guest, bride or groom will like a photographer or videographer constantly in
their line of vision or making them conscious. Nor would they appreciate losing
out on any spectacular memory of the event. So, there is always a thin line to
walk on, ensuring everything is photographed, but never obstructing anyone.
I
have been a Wedding Photographers CT
for seven years now, and each wedding is a momentous occasion. I’ve also
had to train several wedding photographers NYC and videographers in NJ, given my
increasing clientele. And although, as a wedding photographer, I have seen all
kinds of weddings, my favorite so far would have to be one in New York, when an
Indian girl was marrying an American. They first had an Indian style wedding,
full of vibrant colors and fabric, marigold flowers and loud music, and then a
slightly somber version in the church, with predominantly black, white, and
pastels in dresses and splashes of pink with flowers and sashes. The wedding
album came out fantastic, with both occasions offering such contrasting but
equal beauty.
